It’s now, apparently, a (cross-country) ski run
Somewhere under all that cake icing, you will also find a front garden.
My travel plans are all in shambles. I have just spent 7 hours at the airport, playing roulette re-book with American Airlines representatives. I will return for more tomorrow.
The grand irony is – it’s not the 3 or 4 inches you see here (which must have already become 6 or 7 inches or more) that’s causing the delays. The airport is functioning smoothly and there is hardly any snow on the roads.
It’s the “upto 1 inch” of snowfall they had today in Dallas that made them decide to stop all incoming flights pretty much shut down the airport.





This looks BEAUTIFUL tho. Brrrrrrrrrrr. Merry Xmas!
Thanks, and wish you a very happy 2010!
This is bloody beautiful!!!
Until you have to clear it,of course.
Better ski run than a skating rink, which our driveway most certainly is. Have fun with snowball fights while it lasts!
Skating rink now. The whole city, actually
I lived in a snowy (one of the snowiest in the US) place too and things almost always ran on clockwork. that made the snow bearable. its places with moderate amounts of snow that crib, complain and make a mess!
That’s true. I am guessing cities with frequent snowfalls have more snow plows/ salt trucks, possibly more funds to procure all this and enough staff too. Cities with infrequent snow probably find themselves overwhelmed.
Too beautiful…Lucky you…
As to the luck..:)
Nice! My wife would kill for that ‘front garden’!
I assume Dallas wasnt prepared for the 1 inch snow. I would think snow in Texas should be rather uncommon?
I’m guessing it’s uncommon too (any Dallas readers can comment?) And we took the snow everywhere we went. It snowed 4″ in New Mexico while we were there
What beautiful photographs!
Best wishes to you, your family and all your readers for a very happy New Year!
And happy blogging!
Thanks, and wish you the same too!
beautiful! the picture i mean:-)
i used to drool over the breathtaking beauty of snow covered earth – till now. am in chicago feeling brrrrrrrr, and refusing to go out.
oh for the sunny trivandrum!
Bundle up, and you should be fine
It’s not even the temperature so much as the wind
Winter wonderland! Hope you had a great vacation.
Thanks, I did
What state are you in? I am in Illinois and we got 5-6 inches around Christmas time too
My 2 year old loved it.
